| Title | Association between the insulin-induced gene 2 (INSIG2) and weight gain in a German sample of antipsychotic-treated schizophrenic patients: perturbation of SREBP-controlled lipogenesis in drug-related metabolic adverse effects? |
| Abstract | Atypical antipsychotics are nowadays the most widely used drugs to treatschizophreniaand other psychosis. Unfortunately, some of them can cause major metabolic adverse effects, such as weight gain, dyslipidemia and type 2 diabetes. The underlying lipogenic mechanisms of the antipsychotic drugs are not known, but several studies have focused on a central effect in the hypothalamic control of appetite regulation and energy expenditure. In a functional convergent genomic approach we recently used a cellular model and demonstrated that orexigenic antipsychotics that induce weight gain activate the expression of lipid biosynthesis genes controlled by the sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) transcription factors. We therefore hypothesized that the major genes involved in the SREBP activation of fatty acids and cholesterol production (SREBF1, SREBF2, SCAP,INSIG1而在SIG2) would be strong candidate genes for interindividual variation in drug-induced weight gain. We genotyped a total of 44 HapMap-selected tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms in a sample of 160 German patients withschizophreniathat had been monitored with respect to changes in body mass index during antipsychotic drug treatment. We found a strong association (P=0.0003-0.00007) between three markers localized within or near the INSIG2 gene (rs17587100, rs10490624 and rs17047764) and antipsychotic-related weight gain. Our finding is supported by the recent involvement of the INSIG2 gene in obesity in the general population and implicates SREBP-controlled lipogenesis in drug-induced metabolic adverse effects. |

| Title | Gene-gene interactions of the INSIG1 and INSIG2 in metabolic syndrome in schizophrenic patients treated with atypical antipsychotics. |
| Abstract | The use of atypical antipsychotics (AAPs) is associated with increasing the risk of the metabolic syndrome (MetS), which is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Two insulin-induced gene (INSIG) isoforms, designated INSIG-1 and INSIG-2 encode two proteins that mediate feedback control of lipid metabolism. In this genetic case-control study, we investigated whether the common variants inINSIG1而在SIG2 genes were associated with MetS in精神分裂症patients treated with atypical antipsychctics. The study included 456schizophreniapatients treated with clozapine (n=171), olanzapine (n=91) and risperidone (n=194), for an average of 45.5�27.6 months. The prevalence of MetS among all subjects was 22.8% (104/456). Two single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of theINSIG1gene and seven SNPs of the INSIG2 gene were chosen as haplotype-tagging SNPs. In single-marker-based analysis, the INSIG2 rs11123469-C homozygous genotype was found to be more frequent in the patients with MetS than those without MetS (P=0.001). In addition, haplotype analysis showed that the C-C-C haplotype of rs11123469-rs10185316- rs1559509 of the INSIG2 gene significantly increased the risk of MetS (P=0.0023). No significant associations were found between polymorphisms ofINSIG1gene and MetS, however,INSIG1而在SIG2 interactions were found in the significant 3-locus and 4-locus gene-gene interaction models (P=0.003 and 0.012, respectively). The results suggest that the INSIG2 gene may be associated with MetS in patients treated with AAPs independently or in an interactive manner withINSIG1. |
